Playing is really simple. "Like" OpticsPlanet on Facebook to learn when a new giveaway is happening. There will be a tab specifically for the contest. Whenever we are giving away a product, that tab will have a picture of the product, a short description, the number we are giving away, and a trivia question. This is a competition of skill and brains. The first person (or people, if we are giving away multiples) to answer the question correctly win that product! We'll have to verify the answer and the time we receive it, so you won't find out if you won right away but there will be more giveaways coming constantly. You can enter as many times as you want!

With true Night Vision finally available to every agency, officers will have the information they need to make quick decisions, enhancing mission effectiveness, maximizing operational capabilities, and improving officer safety.


H-Series Cameras Allow Law Enforcement and Military Officers:
See suspects in total darkness. H-Series provides a 320 × 240 resolution VOx microbolometer for half the cost of comparable cameras, giving officers excellent, high-fidelity Thermal Imagery that provides the detail necessary for cutting edge performance and improved detection and recognition ranges in total darkness, as well as through smoke, dust, and light fog.
See better through camouflage and foliage in any lighting conditions. Because H-Series cameras see heat, not light, they’re not fooled by suspects wearing dark clothes and hiding in bushes. Crooks can’t hide their heat, so they can’t hide from the H-Series.
See more – and see farther – than with other night vision technologies. Because H-Series thermal cameras see clearly without any light whatsoever, they can see farther at night than technologies that need ambient light to work and they can see heat sources that these other cameras could never find.
